If those aren’t ideal though, you also have thousands of potential curves you can build yourself in the associated iOS/Android app. Save up to 3 of those customizable curves directly onto the device and throttle options for numerous and varied situations are at your fingertips instantly. Best of all, the Dinan Throttle Booster installs in minutes and is fully reversible. A richer, more enjoyable driving experience has never been easier to attain!

Actually it does work on the SE. Thanks for pointing it out it wasnt listed. EV's when they don't have an engine (required field in the backend database) have issues displaying and require special attention to get displayed right on the website. Apparently no one caught it but that has been rectified now.

What make this one unique to the other 2 are the curves.

I have a Sprint Booster, sometimes there's a little too much at the start, when you want a little less at first but more later on.

Do these "in effect" just reduce the amount of pedal travel? There has to be negative effects as you mentioned i.e. over boosted etc. They do offer a 30 day guarantee
Think I'll check my throttle cable first make sure there's no slack at the carburetor!

Like @tvpostsound, I have the Sprint Booster, coupled with the Dinan Stage 1 tune, it makes for more instantaneous response to throttle inputs. Is it perfect? No, but barring anything else gets rid of the annoying throttle lag Mini/BMW programs into it.
